Woke up about quarter to 5. My neck was hurting me a lot from sleeping on it wrong. Got up about 5:10. Ran from 5:16 to 5:31, down to the park near me and around the track (not sure how far it is around the track) five times, working up a nice sweat. Really, I'm out of shape. I don't think the track is quite a quarter of a mile, so I might have done a mile, maybe a tad more. Ugh. Not that I need to be doing a killer pace first thing in the morning, but I really should be able to run more than a mile without getting as tired as I got.

I could so easily have gone straight back to bed after my shower. But it felt good to get going and get in to work by 7:30 (it would have been earlier except for bus stuff). I think I'm going to try to get in to work by 7:00 tomorrow. We'll see how it goes.

Does someone want to take a picture of me running sometime? It doesn't have to be at 5:30 in the morning; it can be a posed shot. I'd just like to have a running userpic.

It just occurred to me that this might have sounded threatening (jokingly or seriously). All I meant was that I would be happy to take digital photos of you running, but would also like to shoot some film, too.

Re: running

Let me know when you want to do it. Theoretically, I'll be there every morning. I really like being out there at first light, but I could also shift it slightly later if that fits into your schedule better.

Re: running

I hope to be able to work up to more than 5 times around the track, but who knows how long that will take. But, anyway, yeah, I wouldn't force you to run more than you want to. We can talk on Monday night about Tuesday morning.
